COFFEE-POT.

`To ALL To WHoM THESE PRESENTS SHALL COME:

Be it known that I, DANIEL T. ROBINSON, of Boston, in the county offSuiiolk, and State ofl Massachusetts, have Vinvented a new and useful Coffee-Pot, or improvements in coffee-pots; and do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, making part of this specilication, such drawing being a vertical section of a-coii'ee-pot' containing my invention or v improvement. l

My invention is an improvement in the classof coiee-pots known as condensing pots, or those in which the vapor from the boiling decoction `of coifee and water is cqndensed, the condensed liquid being retained and carried back into the boiling decoction, the coii'ee itself, or boiee grounds, as the mass is usually termed, being contained within a. foraminousor 'perforated cup, extending within the body' ofthe pot and into the decoctiou i I *i My invention consistsin surrounding this foraminous cup with a hollow cylinder or tube, as shown in the drawing, the object of' this tube being to catch and retain the sediment which would otherwise escape from lthe forazninous cup, and be drawn through the nose of the pot while pouring its contents'from it. I

My invention further consists in combining with thepot a receptacle or pitcher, the bottom of which serves as a condensing surface, to condense the vapors arising from the pot, while the pitcher itself answers the pury pose of holding and keeping in a warm state milk or any desirable liquid. v i

In the drawing above referred to, A denotes the body of the pot, it being provided with a discharging nose or spout, a, and a handle, b, in the usual manner, the outer extremity of the nosehaving a tightly tting cap, c, applied to it. Fitting tightly into the month of the pot AV is a shallow, tapering pan, B, attached to the bottom of which, and opening into it, as seen in the drawing, is a foraininous cup or receptacle, C, for containing the ground coil'ee from which the decoction is to be made, the said cup extending-nearly to the bottom-of the pot', andy being in size about one-third the diameter of the pan B. Surrounding this cup, and so as to leave a small annular chamber or space, ai', betweenthem, is a cylindrical tube, D, also attached to the bottom of the pan B, and being of equal, or about equal, length with the cup. A series of holes, e e e, Snc., are made in the sides the pan B, to allow of the passage of the vapn-s from the pot A through them. Surmounting the pan B, and fitting into its mouth, is a pitcher or receptacle, E, for containing milk, orany other liquid which it may be desirable to place within it, the application of the pitcher to the pan B being substantially as shown in the drawing. A

y In operating with the above-described utensil, the ground coiee is placed within the cup Q, and immersed within the boiling water, with which the pot A has been previously partly iilled. The pitcher E is then to be put in place within the mouth of' the pan B, and beat 'applied togthe lower part oi' the pot. The vapors generated from the boiling decoction, and which contain most of the aroma of the coffee, will rise and pass through the openings e e, and striking against the bottom of `th`e pitcher E, willbe condensed, and will drop into the pan B and the cup C, and thence back into the boiling decoction. In course of time the@ milk, or other liquid contained within the pitcher, will be warmed to a considerable extent, or sufficiently so for any purposes for which it may be needed.

I do not claim the subject ci; United States Patent No. 39,115, and granted the 7th of July, 1866; but I claim, in combination with the pan B, and f oraminous cup C, the shield or tube D, essentially in manner and for the purpose as described.
